Influence of Road Safety Barriers on the Severity of Motorcyclist Injuries in Horizontal Curves

Motorcyclist safety remains a significant problem, and the overall of motorcyclists has been improved at much slower rate in last decade compared to passenger commercial vehicles. Because are not protected by vehicle frame, fatalities or severe injuries often related hitting roadside object barrier. The main objective this study is investigate relations between presence type road barriers consequences motorcycle crashes on rural roads. For purpose, we analysed Croatian road-crash data from 2015–2019, tested several factors as single predictors, combined them using binary logistic regression. results show that run-off-road nighttime driving risk factors. There was no positive impact crash due unsuitability for motorcyclists, which proves fact functionality existing should be upgraded. could further used researchers, designers, experts improve infrastructure
